Individual Details

David Patterson Pew

(1794 - 1861)

Copied from Cemeteries north and northeast of Atkins, Pope County, Arkansas, by C. L. and Lina Boyd with permission.
Gravesite Details: No marker; born in Fayette Co, Ky; killed during the Civil War; son of Jonathon and Mary Pew; husband of Mary.

At least 13 of David Pew’s descendants share DNA with me, so it is certain that he and my third great grandmother, Margaret Pugh are related. I have tentatively placed him in my tree as her brother. They could have been siblings, half siblings, or cousins. It is impossible to know for certain without identifying their parents. Samuel Pew and Eleanor Patterson are the parents suggested by Ancestry ThruLines, which simply means that someone put these names into their tree, apparently without evidence. Family Search FamilyTree has no sources for them, and someone added a comment at Find-a-Grave, also without any citation, that David’s parents were named Jonathan and Mary Pew.
This David Pew could be GQP6-QFY
